Im having some difficulties getting this setup to work.

I currently have two 19" monitor that i put n the same resolution. So I have monitor 2 as extended; which means i can drag from left to right.

How do i get a dual monitor setup to work?? Is there a step by step instruction somewhere?

My system:
3.6Ghz hyperthread
4 gb RAM
nVidia 6800 with latest driver

I used to be able to do it when I had XP pro. I also downloaded a microsoft fix for dual monitors which caused flickering but I cant even get dual monitors to work.

Help !  Cool

You need the Matrox Dual Head or Triple Head Expansion module: http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/products/gxm/th2go/

I have a brand new, never opened TripleHead2Go Digital Edition for sale for $240. I bought this for a trade show booth and we didn't use it. I use another at home for FSX and it is the best purchase for gaming I have ever made! It is awesome!

Mail or PM if interested.

I use Ultramon on my computer. It controls all 4 monitors on my work computer and was only $40 when I bought mine.

They do have a trial period that you can give a try
